5.0 out of 5 starsGreat toaster!
I like the removable tray as well as the retractable cord. Both are great add-ons to this product.

The settings for darkness are great, and always comes out with perfectly toasted bread.

2.0 out of 5 starsToaster tray is poor (lots of crumbs) and difficult cleaning
The toaster works as well as any moderately priced toaster, but the outside casing is difficult to clean (and keep clean), and the crumb tray is too small for the opening (consequently there is a cascade of crumbs every time you even slightly move it or make toast). :-(

It is okay but does not stay down long enough to toast even on high. The only good side is that you can press it down right away and not have to wait. We bought a Breville for our other property...did not want to spend the money again but would go Breville next time.

We bought this toaster considering the reviews it got here on amazon.ca and other webpages.We received it January 25th, 2013.End of April, it only works in the bagel setting and the side actually active has 1/3 of the heating wires dark.Contacted the manufacturer for replacement, will see how much hazzle and cost we will have to replace this toasted toaster!

I was looking for a toaster that will toast gluten free bread properly. We already have an 850 Watt toaster, that does a poor job. I bought this one because the manufacturer's web site says it is 1200 Watts. I suspected that could be true since the model number has a 1200 in it. Turned out that it is only 850 Watts. I returned it immediately without even trying it. I have no idea if it works properly or not, but I suspect it will work as well (or as poorly - depending on your point of view) as any other garden variety 850 Watt toaster. I have a 40 year-old 1300 Watt Sunbeam Radient Control toaster that has been doing a great job for all that time. Unfortunately, we cannot use it for my wife's toast because she has Celiac Disease. I ended up buying the T-Fal Avante speed toaster (1200 Watts) at the local Walmart for $45 ($5 less than the Amazon price).
